At the time of the Domesday Survey the manor of Berrow was evidently included in Overbury, of which parish it was a chapelry. Overbury belonged to the Prior and convent of Worcester, and from an early date Berrow was held under the prior. The overlordship passed with the other possessions of the priory at the Dissolution to the Dean and Chapter of Worcester. Robert de Berrow probably held this manor in 1174-5. The chapel was probably built on his land in the 12thc. It was recognized as a chapel of Overbury in 1194.
